So a 265/35/19x9.5 on the back is just fine? I do want a little poke. Any spacer necessary for that? Maybe a 10mm?
I just need to figure out spacing on the front to not rub? And your best guess is a 25-30mm spacer for the front, correct?
Again, I'm sorry. This is my first car like this and the first time I've had to put tires on it, so I'm beyond lost.

oh my god reading the responses to this is making my head hurt. Somehow you all have managed to go backward.
let's go back to your original premise:
OEM nismo rears on all four corners (19x10.5 +23) with 265/35/19
These will fit. They'll fit with a 20mm spacer in the back. You might need to roll a fender, the only issues i see are maybe in front. But rest assured, folks have run Nismo rears in front ON THE TRACK regularly with no problems, so it is obviously doable, and they do it with more tire than you, albeit also with adjustable suspension components
Now, I have questions about the limits you're putting on yourself:
1) Why square 265/35/19 all around? Thats LESS tire in the rear than STOCK, which seems stupid. There may be some track suspension setups where square tires are, in theory, optimal, but you arent doing anything like that, so it seems like a pointless, arbitrary starting point
2) you don't want adjustable suspension arms. Well, your post history mentions spending $13K on engine ****, so spending $700 on suspension seems like a stupid thing not to do, GIVEN your odd limitations - particularly since you seem to want more "poke" than stock
All in all, you seem to be clinging to a setup that isn't ideal and isn't what you really want anyways
Proposed solution:
Get a set of OEM nismos
they are 19x9.5 +40 and 19x10.5 +23
Get stock sized tires, 245/40/19 front and 285/35/19 rear
These are 100% guaranteed to fit, because, well, its stock.
These are 100% available, because, well, they appear in the FS section regularly
Put them on the car. See how you like them
Now go to the For sale section here and grab some spacers. 15 or 20mm pop up all the time.
Slap them on your car. See how you like them. lots of people do this. they will fit.
You are making this harder than it needs to be, ESPECIALLY when dealing with an OEM nismo wheel that damn near everyone has
It also sounds like you don't know much about wheel fitment and don't seem like you want to put much effort into this, so that is why I have given you an easy, accessible, affordable solution THAT DOESNT require a bunch additional parts/work
This thread really shouldn't be that difficult
